The Project This was the last e-Comm project that we had to do in our animation section of the e9 class. It was considered our "final"and was actually pretty challenging to figure out. We were assigned with the task of creating a website that consisted of many things. We had to have a home page, a projects page, and there were many factors that went into building each one, like adding links, or photos. Not only did we have to make the website, but the program that we made it on was completely new to us, and something that we had never been introduced to. It was call DreamWeaver, and as usual, it took some time to fully get used to the project. I would have to say that this project was quite challenging, just because we had to make sure that everything was right, by following certain videos from Mr.Olson. But Overall, I am very proud of the outcome, and impressed that it looks like this.  What I Learned Throughout this week and working on this project, I have learned ...

My Logo Design The Process           When I first heard about this project I was actually really excited for what the outcome would be. We started out the first couple of days just watching videos and really coming up with sketches. Even though this probably sounds easy and low-key, it was actually pretty challenging. We had to keep in mind things like simplicity and if it would work in different colors. Not to mention if the whole design would look good on anything like a t-shirt, or storefront. Personally I had a large amount of ideas that I thought could work but once you try to sketch them they usually do not turn out, so it took me some time to come up with a few designs that I really liked and thought could be a good option for me. In the end of the sketching portion of this project I had come up with 4 designs that I was really satisfied with, and it was time to move on to adobe illustrator.             ...

The Project We were assigned with the project of creating a house on the program sketch up. Of course this was going to be a challenge considering that we had never used that program, but we got the hang of it. When making the house we were not just making it up in our minds, we were going off of a house that we chose on the website called houseplans.com. The requirements were that the house had to be a certain size, and that it could only be one level. But other than that, the project was really open to creativity. After finishing the house, we were also given the task to create a "movie" type production of our house. There was no specific time limit for this, and it could include as many slides as it took to really show off the best spots of our houses. Overall, I appreciated that this project allowed us to be open-minded and gave us the opportunity to see how some people actually design houses. What I Learned Throughout this project I have learned many aspects of ...
